R-related species have a short life span and an early reproduction cycle? t or f
GREYUIT [131]

It is true that r-related species have a short life span and an early reproduction cycle. R-related species also known as  r-strategist have a short and simple life span. Due to their simple life span, their nutrient exchange rate with the environment is rapid. Unlike K-selected species, they have the ability to reproduce at a young age. They reproduce a large number of off-springs, but many of their off-springs tend to die before attainment of their reproductive age.
